Hallo, dear readers and blogateers.
One of the more important websites I am a proud member of are in need of a little extra support on behalf of the Red Cross, and as such, I would like to appeal to all you sensible and decent people to download the file below from my server, and enjoy the excellent poetry found therein. The poems themselves will be available in paperback form in due course, with 100% of the profits going to the Red Cross. In the meantime, please feel free to download the .pdf of the poems, and if possible, please make a donation of whatever you have spare to the Red Cross. No matter how modest the amount, the Red Cross really need all the help we can give, and probably now more than ever.
Why the Red Cross? They are looking after people who lost everything in the tsunami and in Katrina. They are helping close to two million people in Darfur ~ the world's "worst humanitarian crisis", according to the UN ~ who have fled their homes over the last two years. They are assisting 11 million East Africans ~ food shortages are particularly severe in central and southern Somalia, northeastern Kenya, southeastern Ethiopia and Djibouti. They safeguard prisoners-of-war's rights. I could go on, but we all know the facts and figures.
If you have a website, please feel free to upload the .pdf yourself ~ it's copyleft.
Please also tell your poetry-minded friends about it. eMail it to whomever you like. The object of the exercise is to raise as much money as possible for the Red Cross, so we are hoping to do exactly what we did with '100 Poets against the War': rely on nthposition readers' generosity to spread the word.
